Dan Quinn said tonight’s shutout/blowout loss to the Minnesota Vikings was unacceptable. He thought the team took a step forward last week in their overtime loss to the Broncos, but they took three steps back today in a 31-0 loss. Jayden Daniels landed hard on his left elbow while pursuing a Vikings defender who had just picked him off. Quinn said Daniels could have returned to the game, but he made the call to keep him on the sidelines after the Vikings went up 17-0 in the 3rd quarter.
Zach Ertz also left the game due to injury, but he...

The Washington Commanders visited the Minnesota Vikings, and played in the early afternoon slot. There are still a few more games to watch tonight.
Fox has two games, and most of the country will be watching the Chicago Bears visit the Green Bay Packers. This is a big game for the NFC North, and any other NFC who has playoff aspirations. These two teams are half a game apart in the standings, with the Bears in the lead in the division. The second game features the Los Angeles Rams visiting the Arizona Cardinals in a NFC West showdown.

The Washington Commanders have been devastated with injuries this season, and there have been more in Minnesota. Jayden Daniels left the game in the 3rd quarter after he landed on his left elbow. Now Zach Ertz has suffered a potentially season-ending injury. He went up for a catch, and had his knee taken out by Vikings safety Jay Ward. Ertz went to the sidelines with help from trainers, and immediately went into the blue tent. He was carted to the back to get checked out, and was quickly ruled out.

The Commanders only elevated one player from the practice squad for the Vikings game. Veteran DE DeMarcus Walker gets his first elevation since signing with the team a month ago. Washington elevated International Player Pathway program player T.J. Maguranyanga last week, which is not a good sign for...

Injuries have been a major factor this year, especially with key players, and they’re finally getting the starting offense on the field for the first time this season.
“It’s really important for him, for his teammates, for, you know, for any of the guys, honestly,” Quinn added. “You know, looking into it, with five games, that’s like 30% of our season. There’s a lot, and all of these matter. And you know, as he’s developing,...
